2 - Rules are vague suggestions to Innocent. He'll cheat, he'll bite and scratch and gouge, he'll use weapons... even if he's winning. His words and interactions are at best deliberately annoying and at worst completely random. He remorselessly attacks managers and valets, even if they've done nothing to him. Referees are barely tolerated but if they touch him he will put them down.

ENTRANCE & ATTIRE
Entrance Music:
"Happy Bunny Goes Fluff-Fluff Along" by The Jesus Lizard
Ring Attire:
Innocent wears a sickly-hued green mask with openings for the eyes and mouth. The lower half of his face is clean-shaven. He'll wrestle in whatever shirt he wore when he walked in from the street, typically a ratty, faded and threadbare T-shirt though undershirts are possible as well. A black or brown leather jacket is his typical entrance attire, but he may not take the jacket off before he starts fighting. Innocent wears mismatched black gloves - a black fingerless weightlifting glove on his right hand and a tactical glove on the left. Wrestling boots matching the color of his mask are mostly covered by loose-fitting jeans that are well worn and flexible enough to allow him to be as mobile as possible.
CHARACTER BACKGROUND
Pic Base:
Angelico
Manager/Valet:
(None of these people accompany him to shows in any way - consider them side characters in the extended universe)
Joshua Pressman (Chadwick Boseman)
Mary-Ellen Bigsby (Liv Tyler)
Lily Espinoza (Camren Bicondova)
Personality:
Ochoa is a severe workaholic and highly competitive, a consummate professional dedicated to his craft. An actor by trade, he's been described as the heir-apparent to actors such as Daniel Day-Lewis and Christian Bale, as he dedicates himself entirely to a role and will transform himself mentally and physically as necessary. His work on the stage and screen has brought him accolades, but his exacting standards and insistence on staying in character for every role even after the cameras are turned off make him a pain to work with.
Off-camera, however, Seven is an unrepentent jackass. He sinks himself into everything he does, and does not tolerate anyone he believes to be giving less than 100% of themselves in whatever task they're currently engaged. The actor's bluntness in calling out perceived stupidity in others has earned him a reputation as an unsympathetic jackass in the industry and at large. Ochoa rarely gives interviews and is very private. He does not engage in social media and leaves most business dealings to his agents. When it comes to learning from others, he follows instruction, but after the lesson is over he goes back to his usual self.
He knows how to play nice or get people to like him, he simply chooses not to most times. He sees himself as a storyteller - people don't have to like him as a person to enjoy the work he puts out. The responsibility of the public is to pay him to be someone else for a specific performance... after that, he's under no further obligation to anyone to be anything other than himself.

Bio:
Born in Miami, FL to aspiring singers, Seven was caught up in show business early. His parents gave him as "normal" an upbringing as they could, even as they were usually on the road as backup vocalists to much more notable performers or recording demos and getting uncredited guest spots. Seven was a quite child and didn't bother making friends, finding more enjoyment in his books and his studies. His grandparents were important early presences in his life, wanting Seven to parlay his talents in math and science toward a safe, good-paying job perhaps as an engineer or chemist, but his parents wanted fame for their child in the way that showbiz parents often attempt to live vicariously through their children and cash-in with someone who has many more years of marketability ahead of them.
Seven's choice not to engage in socializing at school turned into his parents removing him from school and home-schooling him so that he could be available for acting lessons, voice lessons, and music lessons. There was always a talent show or an audition for which he had to be available. Soon, Seven was more in the company of adults than others his own age. Other kids weren't potential friends with whom to share the burdens of being a child in show business; they were only competition and to be treated as the enemy.
Though lacking in any talent for singing, Seven did learn to play classical piano and scored minor roles in movies and TV shows. He hit it big becoming the advertising face for a local children's clothing chain. Eventually, Seven's parents began making more money off of him than from their own work. His parents realized this as well, and only redoubled their efforts to making him a star. Over time, Seven grew to become a familiar face on on the small and big screens.
After becoming an adult, Seven cut off contact with his parents. He still wished to pursue acting, which became the only thing he really knew how to do, but he made a plan for himself to reinvent himself now that he wasn't a cute kid anymore. Seven took up a fine arts degree, receiving his MFA in Theatre and spending 2 years cutting his teeth on stage productions. When he reemerged as a screen actor, he was now someone with serious acting bona fides, known for going to sometimes insane lengths to get into character for roles. When he took a role as an American expat living in South Korea, he learned the language even though he had no lines in Korean. He learned basketball from a former NBA coach for a sports movie. To portray a cop, Ochoa went through the training necessary to become a Level 1 Reserve Officer and worked shifts while still filming. He even learned guitar and played in a jazz band as part of his research. Seven lives the lives of the characters he portrays, giving his performances an intense authenticity.
For his latest role, Seven will be playing "Jumpin" Jack Daniels, a popular high-flying wrestler in the Mid-South circuit in the 80s. While a director and script aren't finalized yet, shooting is tentatively scheduled to begin in early 2018, giving Seven time to train. Obviously the studio would rather he didn't risk injury, but Seven wants the full experience of being a wrestler with everything it entails. He's even willing to take competitive matches, though his studio is stepping in and requiring that he wrestle under a mask during training. For now, his manager is onboard with the idea as well, as it will allow the training to be relatively unhindered by the media. Ultimately, Seven's management team wants him to shed the mask and work with his real name and face, to further build his brand.
